Dugout Discussion – Liverpool vs Spurs

11 February 2017 2203 comments

Saturday’s action concludes at Anfield with Liverpool attempting to halt a wretched run in 2017 with victory over fellow title hopefuls Spurs.

From a Fantasy perspective, our focus will mainly be with the visitors, with Dele Alli and Kyle Walker boasting 27.2% and 36.2% ownership respectively. Harry Kane (19%) and Christian Eriksen (15.9%) also go into the tea-time kick-off heavily backed, despite suffering significant sales: Kane was shown the exit by more than 127,000, second only to Liverpool’s Adam Lallana ahead of Gameweek 25.

Jurgen Klopp’s assets have slumped, both in terms of output and popularity with Philippe Coutinho (17.4%) and Lallana (16%) still the top owned on show. The latter is without a goal or an assist in his last five Gameweeks.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    I just watched the goal, cant believe its been given to mcauley! Its evans goal, he definiely headed it, whether mcauley got a touch is inconclusive...it should go to the player who definiely touched it

    Hoping Alli doesn't punish me for selling him.

    No regrets though....Kane will be coming in instead because he feels like a (c) option going forward where Alli never does.

        Maybe. It won't change the fact that I'll maybe get more pts out of Kane for the run due to a willingness to captain him.

    So somehow, this littl maybe hairy touch by McAuley overrules Evans strong header? How can they determine who touched it last? Why give the nod to the less clear touch?

    Yes I have McAuley.

    Now years ago Evans would get that goal. But McAuley touched it. You can see the unnatural loop of the ball into the net. McAuley knows its his as he celebrated. People see what they want to see on replays but think there have been far more controversial decisions in the past.

    People moaning about it, but can definitely see why McAuley was given it.

    The real crimes of FPL are when points are awarded to players where it is mistaken identity which has happened already this season.

      Could McCauley score that goal from that position with back of his head if there was no Evans hittiing the ball behind him
      Ofcourse he couldnt...so all this is BS..its Evans goal and only an idiot would considered anything different...

          Maybe that wasnt best argument but you cant be sure he touched it,there is no direction change
          If there is a camera view that clearly says he touched it than give the goal to McCauley
          But from all those angles I saw it its Evans header and no change of direction until it hits the net

            Wel its actualy wasnt that bad argument cause it wasnt shot that was deflected 2 or 10 m after
            If there was deflection it was 2-5 cm after so it actually makes sense

      If you had brunt you're argument would be very different.
      Clear Evans header, whether mcauleys hair touched it is inconculsive...benefit of doubt should go to whoever defo touched it. Not whose hair may or may not have
